The Hong Kong International Literary Festival (HKILF) is returning for its 2024 edition. Taking place from 4 to 10 March, readers of all ages are treated to a week-long celebration of storytelling, reading, and literature. From engaging talks and interactive workshops to book launches and city walks, there are plenty of activities for you to get involved this year.
Featuring a curated selection of authors from across the world, highlighted participants include award-winning author Diana Reid, Sinophone studies expert Jing Tsu, and non-fiction author Miles Johnson. A line-up of local talents is also featured in the literary festival this year, including architect Raymond Fung, photographer and reporter Chan Kit, and local poetry society Peel Street Poets. Inspired by Hong Kong’s diverse food scene, the HKILF dives into local cuisine and regional flavours with the participation of two award-winning chef and authors, Lui Ka-chun and Fuchsia Dunlop.
